I've been very sick over the weekend, haven't been all there until today ( maybe I'm still not, but at least I have the strength to type). So, I made a move apparently that lost me the game (the game was pretty much over anyway), so GG MWHM, you kicked my ass. Now what's this about a loser's bracket?  |

GG 2 U 2!!!
I thought you could have pulled a draw if ya went Queen for Queen but I hope you're feeling better.
Aqua, Mani, - I have challenged you both - Random Start (Mani White, Aqua Black) - 1/3 time...
Go easy on me...

So what record do you need to survive round 2... Coming in 1 & 1, do I need a perfect 2nd round? |

Looks like the plan is for bottom 4 to be eliminated... so what happens if three of us go 0-3 and two more are tied at 1-2? Tiebreakers?
Good luck, MWHM! |

| I'm hoping I don't need to work out any tiebreakers for the reason that I have yet to come up with any. |

Very Good Game
I half felt that last Bishop move was bad but not because I saw the line your Queen had (obviously). I was getting antsy trying to do everything I could to get a protected Queen move to your back rank.
No worries though - I'm gonna "time out" Mani if we ge to the 3rd round without another move made...
That just leaves Mr. Poppin Fresh who seems content on going piece for piece with a two pawn lead. Gonna be a fun endgame. |

| Is *manimal dead? Can I claim a win if he depletes his timebank? He hasn't moved in over a week. |

Is it too late to get in on some Chess Madness?
p.s. I've made a Lux-Chess map where all the countries are adjacent to those a knight's move away, but won't be able to submit it until next week.... |

| Unfortunately this tournament is closed out. I'm still active though: you can try some of the guys usernames listed on the front of this thread and see if they're still active. |

gg doughboy.
I asked *mani the other day why he was posting silly pictures in the pub, but not moving in his chess games. His response? "Oh - sorry. I totally forgot about it." At least he said he was sorry.
Hopefully he will now move more often than once a week... but my game with him is dead even and could easily go 30 more moves. Everyone is done except him, right? |

Apparently a little Summer's Eve goes a long way. Sources say, Tobey's Girlfriend is quite pleased.  |

I liked this position so I thought I'd share it with fellow chess lovers.
The above is a position I recently reached in a chess game I played at a local tournament. I am Black, and it's black to move. What should I play? (I'll tell the move I played later/tomorrow) |
I don't have time to expand, but right now I'll venture Bd8. |
